There is no mistaking the style and sophisticated design of this exquisite dining set comprising a rare English antique Victorian pollard oak extending dining table, circa 1860 in date and a set of twelve vintage dining chairs.
The styles that developed throughout the early 19th Century were an extension of the current political situations but also in accordance with the needs of the rising middle class during the industrial revolution. This impressive dining table is exemplary of the early Victorian era with its Pollard oak and bold moulded and ebonised edge.
This amazing table has four leaves and can comfortably seat twelve. The leaves can be added or removed as required to suit the occasion by a special winding mechanism. It has been hand-crafted from solid oak which is not only strong, but has a beautiful grain. The top has been veneered in rare Pollard oak, which is seen in the intricate burr.
The four leaves can be added or removed as required to suit the occasion by a special winding mechanism, the leaves can be easily stored away when not required.
The table is raised on four tulip-carved turned and fluted tapering legs ending in brass and porcelain caps and castors.
